Adobe abandoned Flash for Linux-based OSes like elementary OS back in early 2012 (over three years ago): http://www.zdnet.com/article/adobe-abandons-linux/

Google maintains a version of Flash for their Chrome browser, which is available for elementary OS at https://google.com/chrome.

Hey gw2007,

if you're using Firefox and desperately need flash, you could try opening the terminal and installing flash plugin from the repo.

"sudo apt-get install flashplugin-installer "

be sure you've activated "multiverse" sources.

Windows 10 appears to intentionally attack Flash. I run two computers. I got Flash running on Chrome on one computer. That's after searching help files, trying everything I could find, and playing with it. Edge won't work at all. see this guide for more informationhttps://www.adobesupportphonenumber.com/blog/unblock-adobe-flash-player/
